SC1047: Autostereoscopic and Holographic Display Technologies

6 February 2013, 8:30 AM-12:30 PM
Course Level: Introductory
CEU: 0.35
Instructor: Byoungho Lee, Seoul National Univ. (Korea, Republic of)

Course Details

This course explains basic principles of 3D display technologies that might come after the currently mass-commercialized glasses-type (stereoscopic) display. The lecture will start with 3D perception cues of humans and key human factor issues. Then, the principles and status of autostereoscopic 3D display technologies will be described. The coverage will include parallax barrier technology, lenticular lens systems with 3D/2D switchable lenses, mutiview and super-multiview systems, integral imaging, holography using spatial light modulators and see-through 3D display systems for augmented reality. Key concepts in related image processing techniques will also be clarified.

 

Learning Outcomes

• describe depth cues that make humans feel 3D perception
• explain the principles of main next-generation 3D display technologies - parallax barrier type, lenticular lens type, multiview and super-multiview type, integral imaging, holography using electronic devices and see-through 3D display.
• identify advantages, disadvantages and key issues of the above technologies
• design parallax barrier and lenticular lens systems
• construct images for mutiview and integral imaging systems
• construct images for integral imaging (integral photography)
• explain procedure of generating data for phase-type spatial light modulators for 3D display

 

Intended Audience

Scientists, engineers, managers, graduate students or new comers who wish to learn more about how to design autostereoscopic and electro-holographic 3D display systems and generate 3D images for the systems. Undergraduate training in engineering or science is assumed.

 

Instructor

Byoungho Lee has been working on 3D display for 18 years. He received his PhD degree from UC Berkeley in 1993 and is a professor in Electrical Engineering of Seoul National University, Korea. He has been consulting major display industries and government organizations in Korea for 3D display technologies. Dr. Lee is a Fellow of both SPIE and OSA. He has been the 2011-2012 chair of the Holography and Diffractive Optics Technical Group of OSA. He has received several honors including the Scientist of the Month Award of Korea in September 2009 based on his work for integral imaging and digital holography. He is a member of the Korean Academy of Science and Technology.
